Glyceroltrioleate type P
What is Glyceroltrioleate type P?
Glyceroltrioleate type P, known by its INCI name Triolein, is a liquid triglyceride formed by the esterification of glycerol with three molecules of oleic acid. The product is known for its excellent lubricity, oxidative stability, and smooth, oily texture. Thanks to these properties, Glycerol Trioleate is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceutical formulations, and industrial applications where a stable and versatile oil is required.

How is Triolein produced?
The production of Glyceroltrioleate type P takes place through the esterification of glycerol with oleic acid: an unsaturated fatty acid that is typically derived from vegetable oils. Through a carefully controlled manufacturing process, a clear, stable liquid is obtained that meets high quality standards. This makes Triolein suitable for both sensitive applications, such as personal care, and for technical formulations.
Function of Glyceroltrioleate type P
In cosmetics, Triolein acts as an emollient and skin softener: it hydrates the skin, improves the spreadability of products, and provides a smooth, non-greasy finish. It also functions as a solvent and carrier for active ingredients. In pharmaceutical applications, Glyceroltrioleate type P is used as an excipient and in controlled-release formulations. Within the technical sector, it serves as a lubricant, plasticizer, and component in specialty oil blends.
